Some additional stuff about rogues in the expansion.


Kevin Martens (Lead Designer)
XP cap and thieves: Rogues gain levels faster than any other class and get numerous, powerful high level abilities that are unique to rogues. Single-classed, kitted or otherwise, the rogue gains tons of levels and abilities and also gets class specific items.

To clarify - there is a cap of 8 million XP with a maximum level of 40. Things have to stop somewhere and, like all previous games, we chose this point. Unlike previous games, we've expanded the cap enormously. The actual typical XP to be reached in the expansion is 5 million. An enormous amount of experience. The rogue class only slows down at level 39. They need quite a bit of XP for the final level only. They reach level 39 faster than any other class.

Familiars: The familiars are tougher in the expansion.

High level abilities: Regarding high level abilities and high level spells - all classes and kits get some high level abilities or quests spells.
